• Aim– Develop model that allows prediction of insole shape for
various heel height shoes combined with different shoe sizes.– Develop and field-test low-cost prototypes of prosthetic feet
whose insole shapes were based on the new model.
• Relevance– Most prosthetic feet are for low-heeled shoes (<5 cm).
• American Podiatric Medical Association survey indicates most women wear heels >5 cm.
– Prosthetic foot plantar surface shapes don’t change to match insole shapes of shoes with different heel heights.

Method
• Developed equation to calculate insole shapes independent of shoe size.
